    Default Need to update DNX571HD to latest map

    Hi Experts I need guidance/pointers on how to update my maps to the latest version.

    Using micorsd card , I verified from Garmin that the latest they offer is City Navigator® North America NT 2015 Map Update for Kenwood.

    From the forum it seems like 2016 navigator maps are also out.

    I see the updates here --> [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

    If i click on 2016 link --> [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

    I see plenty of options. Here is where my confusion starts , what do i download ?

    I think i need to download "Original Image: ALL: Unlocked ".

    Is that correct ?

    Please point me to right sequence of steps which I need to perform to update maps on my kenwood DNX571 ( It has a microSd and a USB slot ) .

    Thanks in advance.

    I downloaded the unlocked IMG file and extracted the contents into an SD card ( 8 GB) . Buy when I put it into the SD card slot, and click on Nav--> Settings --> Update Maps ...nothing happens ...it just tells me that it wrote information on my SD card , which is basically an XML file ......What am i doing wrong ??? The device has the latest 1.6 firmware version ....has Kenwood disabled unlocked file updates for these garmin devices ?

    On SD Card make a folder named "Garmin" and in this folder put the file for map called "gmapsupp".
    SD Card:\Garmin\gmapsupp.img
    If it does not work, rename the file for map in "gmapbmap".
    SD Card:\Garmin\gmapbmap.img

    I was able to resolve the issue. Once the system is up, insert the micorsd card, u will see a notification showing "Loading Maps". After that go to settings, maps and traffic --> My Maps --> Select the 2015/2016 maps and u r done. Without the last step you end up using the old maps.

    Thanks
